Caramel chocolate digestives closely followed by bourbons (but they have to be the Tesco value ones - nicest of all of them)

Also - does anyone remember Abbey Crunch? Can't seem to find them any more but they were lurvely with a cuppa!!

I had a long running argument a while back with a mate over whether or not McVities Chocolate Digestives used to be called Homewheats. He totally denied it and in a fit of extreme boredom and pedantry I wrote to McVities.

Sure enough, they were formerly called Homewheats.

I sound like a dick now... getmecoat

Even better if you can get away with dunking two at a time! (as is the way with most things in life)

Figs and garibaldis are fine, but always remind me of visits to the grandparents, who seemed to have an infinite supply of them!

But you lot who dunk your biscuits. You're a sick, filthy bunch of deprived reprobates who deserve to be stoned for such disgusting behaviour!

Anyone who doesn't say chocolate Hob-Nobs is obviously some kind of perverted deviant.

I give you the fox extremely chocolatey cookie. By god it's good. That good I fancy taking a walk in the rain to go get some.

Otherwise, for the soft baked cookie fan. May I present the pepperidge farm soft baked sausalito

Cake. It goes hard when it goes stale, rather than a biscuit which goes soft. Also I think it has something to do with VAT on 'luxury' food items.

Malted Milk Biscuits for dunking in black coffee.

Hob Nobs for dunking in white coffee.

Shortbread for all other occasions.
